Title: K3 Soul Bandit - Scratchbuilt 1/10 Electric RC Trike Post by: AnjanBabu on January 22, 2016, 11:27:42 PM The K3 is the successor of the G3 Sinister Saint
The only aim of this project was to build a really fast trike. So yes, this is my fastest car and after some Google-ing, figured I owned, potentially, the fastest RC trike in the world. It can easily do over a 100kmph on 4S, given, I iron out all existing linkage issues plaguing in the front end and gather some nuts to run it that fast. Most parts are custom designed and produced. I will be replacing off-the-shelf parts with custom machined/3D printed parts to optimize the design further. Current setup: Turnigy XK-3650 3650KV Sensored 540 motor Turnigy 60A V2 ESC 16g servo Rhino 3S 2200 Running weight 1-1.2kg Started this project pretty much a year ago, but effectively, it's a 2 month build really.

I will be making multiple body shells, BRG will be one. ;D Aniket, all I need is a crawler to chase Dhruva. :giggle: sahilkit, I'm not into off-road cars so much, I'm gonna try though. I didn't have CSK screws back then, it's a early assembly picture, now all replaced.

are the gears ( Black) worn out or its meant for friction drive.... Title: Re: K3 Soul Bandit - Scratchbuilt 1/10 Electric RC Trike Post by: AnjanBabu on January 23, 2016, 08:57:20 PM rastsaurabh, the gear in the picture is worn out.
I'm not able to find a pinion that meshes well with the spur, so the spur get chewed up pretty quick. |
